Error Jabber::ClientAuthenticationFailure: not-authorized using xmpp4r and openfire

[wonderer007]

I am using Openfire and xmpp4r to connect to server with the help of tutorial. This tutorial is working fine for everyone except me, its throwing error on line

@client.auth(@password)
Error is

Jabber::ClientAuthenticationFailure: not-authorized

I Google and found a solution which resolve similar problem appending resource name with JID but this too is not working for Openfire

Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks

wonderer007, what version of Openfire are you using? We are using 3.10.3. We used to use Openfire 3.6.4, and after upgrade to 3.10.3, the gem started failing to connect.

[seanleblanc]

In case this helps anyone else, doing this worked:

client.auth_sasl SASL.new(client, 'PLAIN'), password

Otherwise, the plain old client.auth method tries to do message digest if the server offers it.
